Overview

As the US moves towards a fiscal cliff, the 'American dream' of upward mobility for all is under serious threat. A decade of low growth and widening income inequality is polarizing political debate just as public/private trade-offs are growing starker. The lecture will explore the causes and possible consequences for America and the world if indeed American exceptionalism has reached its economic limits.
